In a smoking survey among boys between the ages of 12 and 17, 78% prefer to date nonsmokers, 1% prefer to date smokers, and 21% don’t care. suppose seven such boys are selected randomly. let x equal the number who prefer to date nonsmokers and y equal the number who prefer to date smokers. (a) determine the joint pmf of x and y. be sure to include the support of the pmf. (b) find the marginal pmf of x. again include the support.

Successful implementation of a new system is based on three independent modules. module 1 works properly with probability 0.96. for modules 2 and 3, these probabilities equal 0.95 and 0.90. compute the probability that at least one of these three modules fails to work properly.

Powerful women's group has claimed that men and women differ in attitudes about sexual discrimination. a group of 50 men (group 1) and 40 women (group 2) were asked if they thought sexual discrimination is a problem in the united states. of those sampled, 11 of the men and 19 of the women did believe that sexual discrimination is a problem. if the p-value turns out to be 0.035 (which is not the real value in this data set), then at = 0.05, you should fail to reject h0. at = 0.04, you should reject h0. at = 0.03, you should reject h0. none of these would be a correct statement.
